- SAI_Peregrinus 5y agoIt's important for any severe dehydration. Less severe dehydration means less water has been lost, and the loss of electrolytes is proportional to the amount of water loss. The absorbtion increase is important for cases of severe dehydration, but mild dehydration can often afford to wait for a meal to replenish the electrolytes fully.
